SERENDIB CRICKET

Yesterday Serendib registered another easy win against Paddy Foleys.It was a morning game and as usual some of serendib players were late.But this time paddys captain wanted to reduce our allocated overs as a panalty.So Serendib started the game with loosing 2 overs.To add more trouble serendib lost the toss for the 5th consecutive time for this season and had to field once more.Serendib opening bowler Chamila Silva started a unsual bad over with 10 runs including 7 wides.But serendib managed to get back to the bowling rythem after taking 2 outstanding run outs by Dhanuka samaranayake and Shiron Dharshana.With the introduction of Shiron Dharshana to bowl paddys down fall was started.Shiron Dharshana bowled really good line and length and that help to get 3 wickets.One time he was on a hat trick but unfortunately he couldnt get his 2nd hat trick on serendib history.In the end Paddys were restricted to mere 63 runs in the exactly 18th over.

Serendib stared thier small chase of with a new batting order.But wickets were fallen regular intervals starting from Buddhika Manoj in the first over.Sasanka Salgadu who was playing his first game as a batsman played some glorious shots including a massive six over long leg boundery.Chamila silva gave a good support with scoring 18 runs in quick time.In the end Serendib chased thir target of 64 runs with five wickets in hand.Man of the match for this game should be given to Sasanka Salgadu for his sencible batting and some tight bowling.
